An App for the general practitioner dealing with patients with allergic rhinitis.
The objective is to provide the general practitioner a simple tool to evaluate performance in patients with allergic rhinitis, the probability that a patient has to be suffering from an allergic form and therefore the need to perform allergy testing, reminding the patient that the 'single order for the execution of a diagnostic test for the respiratory allergy is to start a specific treatment of immunotherapy. This choice will be made dall'Allergologo based on clinical and laboratory criteria.
